[QUOTE="GMforPowergamers, post: 8887821, member: 67338"] that is easy to say and hard to do. Imagine the designer of gambling wheels walked into your office tomorrow, He told you there was a wheel that was just shy of 3/4 red, and just shy of 1/4 black... the rest were little 1% blue green and yellow... so far ONLY black has been bet on 10 to 1. if you can get 2-3 million dollars, and risk a slight chance of no income while it is spinning you can bet on red... and the wheel he tells you is not balanced... the line between red and black is where it will always land more on the red side (trust me I do this for living he says)... but the wheel might spin for 2years or more and best case at least a year... at some point the guy who bet on black will for totally sure (trust me I know he says) want the money they bet back and offer you to just stop the wheel both take 1/3 of your money back and he will give you a bag of candy and some nice shinny rocks and a tip on a horse race... just get that 2-3 million dollars up on what is for sure a sure thing. People online keep telling you go for it... they will support you and offer a few bucks here and there to help you... Do you risk 2-3 million and maybe your lifes work? THAT is risk analysis at the best case. Oh and the rub... that guy who bet on 1/4 black auto wins an gloats if no one bets against him... but he bet a rounding error of his income. [/QUOTE]
